SOMETHING UNIQUE.
A Remarkable Concert Given at
Library Hall.
The Large Audience In Attendance
Highly Pleased.
Terpsichore Subsequently Secures
and Keeps the Ascendency.

That hlnder-Slmphonle Is a new
word, or new combination OF two old
words, is abundantly evidenced by the
fact that since its recent introduction in
Cheyenne it has been spelled differently
every other day in the newspapers. AS
finally evoluted and printed in the fore
going paragraph, it has a itch, sonorous.
foreign air about it that is tantalizing in
its suggestion of something unique in the
way OF melody.
TIE Kinder symphonic given at Library
hall last evening was decidedly unique so
far as Cheyenne In general is concerned.
and altogether ENJOYABLE so far as the
audience which witnessed it in particular
IS concerned. The audience was large
and representative. 1t ran the limit on
the seating capacity of the hall and over
flowed into the lobbies.
The western end of the hall was parti
toned off by a graceful arrangement of
United States flags. The stage thus
provided was prettily ornamented with
pictures. flowers and pric a brac.
When the portieres were Withdrawn
from the front of the stage, a very pretty
scene was disclosed. The eighteen per-
formers were effectively grouped. To the
right sat Miss Sprague, baton in hand.
Back OF her were Mrs. Fred Voorhees,
and Miss Barkwell at the piano. In the
foreground were the violinists, Prot.
Hutchinson and Victor Da Prato first,
and Barney David second. To the right
were Mrs. Freeborn, Mrs. Bush, Miss
Alice Smith, Miss Louise Smith, Richard
Ashworth, DR.. Stevens. Miss Moore,
Miss Bergman, S. Il. Wilcox, H. S.
Bush, G. F. Rossire and T. B. Adams.
All the ladies wore novel and pretty cos
tunes.
The combination of music produced by
a piano, %violins, cornet, drum, combs
covered with tissue paper. a triangle, tin
whistles and other of more
unique construction was at times what
might be terucd queer, but the effect OF
the whole was intensely interesting and
keenly enjoyed by everyone in attendance.
According to the programme the selec
tions were intended to express in the
language of music the tuu and frolic of a
merry party out for a jolly sleigh ride, -
and the simple fact of any merry party
being out for a Jolly sleigh ride in this
section of the country lent another air of
novelty and added charm to the occasion.
The programme was opened with great
eclat by the novel orchestra, after which a
violin solo from Trduiatd, was rendered
by young Victor De Prato with remark
able technical skill. Miss Lille Da Prato
accompanied on the piano.
Miss Barkwell was accorded a very en-
thusiastic encore after singing The
Angels Serenade."
Prof. Hutchinson followed in a violin
solo from DE Beriot which was rendered
with remarkable skill.
The concert closed with a final selection
by the orchestra, which was received with
even more enthusiastic applause than the
opening effort.
One of the hits of the evening was the
sailors hornpipe danced by Mr.. Thos. B.
Adams, who developed terpsichorean
graces, the possession of which many of
his friends had never suspected. The
encore resembled a three times three with
a tiger thrown in.
The floor was then cleared of the chairs
and dancing begun and continued with
great devotion until the midnight hour.
